The Royal Return (1)

Ursa woke up with a huge smile. Oh, she knew she was utterly filthy, physically, that is. Her body was caked with dry sweat and her thighs felt sticky as Nik made sure that he wasn't just eager to handle his future stepchildren but the products of his own actions, too. Of course, Ursa fleetingly remembered Nik saying that Yue had some options so there was that. Her usual straight brown hair was now utterly disheveled while love marks peppered down from her neck to her breasts. Nik could heal it... but something about being 'marked' aroused the mature queen and made her feel excited more than ever before.

What she wondered was how long was she out for? While she didn't think Nik would be next to her... but he slept with a peaceful expression. As if affected by the movement next to him, Nik woke up groggily with a yawn. His eyes were quick to meet Ursa and despite the state he left her in after hours of banging session that clearly left her in a paradoxical circumstance of wanting more and rest all at the same time, he kind of zoned out, too.

"Hey, beautiful~!" Nik cooed first thing in the morning as Ursa's smile grew markedly brighter but she still retorted somewhat playfully after feeling a lot less complicated given... she'd been brought to sensational orgasms a dozen times last night. "Oh, stop it, Nik. I know better how... 'used' I must be looking. Is that how you treat a queen?"

What a difference it was from yesterday, Nik noted. Instead of replying right away, Nik leaned forward and hugged her gently. As her heart almost felt overflowing with emotions, he picked her up in a princess carry while keeping a bedsheet on her, "Of course," he beamed, "A queen must feel thoroughly fucked so she can, in turn, fuck over the population for her own benefits!"

Ursa scoffed at such a contrived outlook of such a royal position but snuggled against his broad chest as he led her to the more luxurious bath of the mansion while assuring that there won't be any present.

"I'm sorry about last night, however. I usually use waterbending to perform some quick clean-up so that my partners don't feel too uncomfortable... but Ty Lee exhausted me last evening a bit more than I expected." Nik spoke as he led Ursa to the bath while she grew silent for a moment and then let out an audible hum without any substantial response. She was most likely trying to... wrap her head around the situation and Nik didn't press for her response even during the bath as he made sure that she got all the pampering she would need. In fact, Nik was considering if he should stop using waterbending for quick clean-ups because bathing with the girls was certainly desirable.

But... for now, he had training. The more he trained, the better. After attaining a realm of mastery in the element of water... Nik wasn't that worried about Ozai for a good reason. What worried Nik was Ra and Raat, the spirit of the sun and dusk... well, for his own reasons now, Nik wanted to at least meet with the two primordial spirits who would eventually look for him. Or maybe they already have started to do that.

After bathing, Ursa embarrassedly refused to look at the deviously smirking Michi who brought them a change of clothes, and knowing well that Ursa wasn't into 'adventurous' clothes, Michi brought her old clothes to the 'new' mother. And only then did Ursa realize it was already the afternoon of the next day and while it caused her to feel momentarily anxious... Nik decided to alleviate her worries by saying that since he technically slept this morning, he did 'send' Yue, Katara, and the Team Avatar back to the store.

Ty Lee's circus was only here for five days and they planned to perform for five days straight. It would have been a disaster if Nik slept without letting them out. Of course... if that would have come to pass, they would have barged into the room to wake him up.

So, with some peace in mind, Ursa shared a meal with Michi, Poppy, and Mai not that she took the time to explore Nik's 'civilization.' Again, Ursa and a few others still didn't know how his skills worked but he did plan to tell Ursa a few things... of course, after banging out a few more details with Azula as the 'witness' to their engagement. Nik had to do this... in name of professionalism.

But Ursa definitely needed some time as she began to realize the kind of life she could lead here now that she saw the flower shop manned by Michi, Poppy, and Mai. It was quite pleasant... but even when she was ready, Nik couldn't just let her out. Since they entered the personal world through the front of the store, that's where Ursa would appear and there must be a lot of customers at this time. So, while a little curious, she accompanied Nik in his training with others...

And he trained a lot.

Nik's manner of training included sparring and he HAS sparred with Jin, Michi, and Poppy, too. They weren't fighters, but they did want to have a sense of participation since they were training relatively hard and Suki certainly did not cut them any slack. But even if his partner rested, Nik would pick another and tire her out, and then another, and then another. The only one who did manage to keep and even trouble Nik... was none other than the 'sweet' Toph.

It was clear that not only Ursa's royal quim but also her horizons were broadened by a single trip to Nik's personal space.

Ursa did leave when the space grew dark and when she arrived, she found a miffed Zuko waiting for her in the store alongside Team Avatar. Seeing Ursa largely unharmed, Zuko let out a sigh of relief until he noted the change of her dress, and knowing how he would take the information, Ursa admittedly gave an excuse that she just needed a bath after trying Michi's training regime.

As Azula left with a playful wink alongside her mother, surely intending to get out every detail, Nik could finally make true to his plan of sitting down with Team Avatar and chatting with them where he was informed that while Lu Kin would allow a few of them to wear disguises and sneak into the Phoenix City through the circus, he refused to bring an army into Phoenix City. Whether Ozai's rule was right or not, as a former soldier having had enough of wars, Lu Kin did not feel right to transport an army of rebels... and Nik was the same in that regard, or else he could just bring the rebels in his personal space and unleash them on others.

For the next three days, things entered into well-oiled satisfactory clicks and clacks of cogwheels as, despite her initial resistance to the idea, Ty Lee did agree to only help Nik learn more about Chi-blocking... until he realized there was a skill similar to this but... largely outdated.

Ty Lee's Chi-Blocking was a set of attacks that targetted one's chi as the user would knock and block the vital regions where the chi travels in the body. As a result, the one whose chi has been blocked will feel the affected region hurt and non-functional... The 'knowledge' in his mind from the library, however, was merely a theory on this from many, many, years ago.

Still, three days were barely enough to learn all this, and he had yet to find a way to counter chi-blocking but it was exciting nonetheless. Ty Lee quickly became popular with like-minded girls around Nik— Jin, June, Katara, and Michi. The acrobat's eager nature, however, was hard to handle by others as Mai only 'tolerated' Ty Lee because they were quite the 'besties' according to Ty Lee but once their talk was done with the circus, Azula kept her distance from the girl as her cheerful personality irked the princess quite a bit.

Finally, Nik also gave airbending some more focus while discussing a few things he learned from the library about Airbending. Unlike the section of fire nation which was destroyed save from some bending theories in other sections, Nik knew the remaining three bending ethics theoretically and alongside Aang, many things could be put to a test.

"Hi~! You guys made it!!" Ty Lee pounced on Jin who had a wide smile herself as the 'simple' village girl was always happy to be appreciated. She then looked at Nik... and a standoffish Azula who wasn't far from them with her arms crossed.

Today was the last show of the day and 'Team' Nik and the Avatar's team would be leaving Old Ba Sing Se. Before that, Ty Lee wanted to have one last night of hanging around in Old Ba Sing Se where she had exploded in popularity. So, even if multiple gazes lingered on her, Ty Lee's grin did not grow tame as she had one arm around Nik's shoulder and the other one around Jin before chiming, "To the tavern!"

As Ty Lee had practically lived in Nik's personal space for days, she was more eager to spend her time in Old Ba Sing Se during her last evening. Azula only scoffed and followed... having a strange sense of deja vu. The last time... she followed Nik, June, and Jin and she was thoroughly fucked, pumped, and fucked again. So she had grown a sense of aversion to the tavern, only hitting the spot with Zuko at times to tease him.

Seeing Ty Lee chipper than usual since she had done a banger performance for the duration of the show, Nik smiled and shook his head, "What would you do after the Circus' Trip is completed? Back to the Fire Nation main capital?"

His question made Ty Lee blink for a second as she retracted her arms and held her chin between her thumb and index, "Hmm... maybe? I mean, I have been away from home for a year, and my father would want me to get married by now but since nobody wants to marry my eldest sister, Ty Woo, we all can drag it out for a few more years."

"Careful, Ty Lee..." Azula's voice sounded from behind, "A few more years and your tits may just sag and drop down to your waist."

"Aren't we... the same size?" Ty Lee tilted her head. It was true. While Ty Lee's breasts were more roundish, Azula's were perkier and quite sizeable. The acrobat continued and shook her head, "Jealousy makes your aura looks all dark blue and stormy."

"She can be like that," Jin smiled, no longer pressed under Azula's thumb as she narrowed her eyes, "Wait until you get a couple of cups of booze in her... she can be quite... hmm, ah, yes, pliable."

Azula glared at her former lover turned current harem 'sis' and snorted. Yet, her golden irides snuck a glance towards Jin's curvaceous form. Even amongst the many around Nik, the plain and simple Jin would stick out with a formidable presence without her clothes... just like Poppy in that regard.

Or her own mother.

"Reallly~!" Ty Lee's expression quickly grew foxy as she smirked and purred, "New objective! Let's get the mighty Plunderer's Harem drunk and see how differently they act... you wouldn't mind right?"

She turned to face Nik with a coy expression. These past few days, Nik, or rather the setting of a harem had been a source of great interest for the contortionist and she was quite vocal about her reasons if asked. Being a part of seven identical siblings, Ty Lee had grown to enjoy a sense of individualism that set her apart from her sisters with whom she shared a face and a body... So, even if everyone around Nik was certainly an 'individual', Ty Lee wanted to see if any of them felt a little fearful that they may get sidelined.

This would have been an actual issue if not for Nik trying his damn best to focus on everyone and when someone worked that hard, others notice it, too. From stealing princesses to eradicating a shadow of a spirit and granting bending abilities, Nik had done what even most Avatars may not have done in a lifetime— oh, and did he mention insulting the face stealer using his mother, the spirit of identity?

Anyway, as it turns out if you are THAT taken care of, even the girls didn't have any complaints except that Nik would wear them out too much, and since they were training at the time... Ty Lee assumed that this was related to training even if her senses screamed that it may not be so simple...

Humming thoughtfully, Nik's smile grew a bit more teasing and he turned to face Azula, "So? What do you think? Would Ursa be willing to join us?"

Jin eagerly observed Ty Lee's expression as Nik said so while Azula rolled her eyes. Meanwhile... Ty Lee's lips parted in shock and then she looked at Nik... wondering just how he had managed THIS.

"I- is that true?" It was rare to see Ty Lee stammer as Nik kept on smiling and had his arm around her shoulders in no time, as she did before, and chuckled, "One way to find out right? And come on, stop pouting... Or do you think Jin would be happy to take your spot here?" Nik inquired as he parted his right arm and Azula quickly picked her pace up.

"Ah, the tavern, Ty Lee, want me to tell you what happened here with Azula one time?" Jin added to the topic as Ty Lee grew curious, "What?"

"Don't you!" Azula snarled as Jin giggled and cooed, "Or what?"

The dark-haired firebender gritted her teeth and glared at Jin as if facing a mortal enemy!

As they say, breakups can be a bitch. A good thing that Nik was slowly mending their bond too with occasional sessions on the side.
